Weapons

For your weapons, you need to look for any modifier that gives you mana since this build needs quite a bit of mana to sustain. Lastly, this build uses the Trampletoe Trimmed Greaves, which is useful for clearing enemy packs faster.

List of Weapons

Armor and Accessories

Aside from Armour, Maximum Life, and Elemental Resistances, you are also looking for the new modifier that makes a percentage of your armour apply to elemental damage. This is a significant boost for survivability, and is especially useful for the Titan class.

Runes and Soul Cores

Armor

For your weapon, the Greater Iron Rune can further boost your Physical Damage, which is vital for this build. For your armour, slot in a Greater Iron Rune or any Elemental Resistance rune to improve survivability.

Charm Options
Amethyst CharmAmethyst Charm NgamahuNgamahu's Chosen Ruby Charm Antidote CharmAntidote Charm

Use charms that boost whatever elemental resistance you lack. In this case, an Amethyst Charm would be ideal since Chaos Resistance can be difficult to get. Antidote Charm is also incredibly useful, especially since many enemies can apply poison.

This build also uses the Ngamahu's Chosen Ruby Charm since it can give you maximum Rage stacks, significantly boosting your damage.

This build revolves around constantly breaking enemy armour with Wind Blast before going in with Hammer of the Gods. For mapping, Wind Blast by itself is already good, but adding the Armour Explosion support gem and Herald of Ash further improves this setup by giving you great AoE damage.

Wind Dancer and Scavenged Plating improve your survivability by stacking up your armour, increasing evasion and knocking back enemies.

Screenshots taken from Path of Building

※ Legend: Red = Weapon Set I | Green = Weapon Set II

For Ascendency Passives, use Crushing Impacts, Colossal Capacity, and Hulking Form. When you manage to obtain more Ascendency Skill Points, unlock Surprising Strength.

For the passive tree, you are looking to increase general Melee Damage, Stun Buildup, and AoE through nodes such as Smash, Devastation, and Breaking Blows to maximize the effectivity of Wind Blast. It is also vital to get the Armour Breaking nodes such as Cruel Methods since there are nodes that further increase damage against enemies with Fully Broken Armour.

Lastly, invest in nodes that give more Armour or Life Recoup such as Made to Last and Tempered Defences.

Armour Explode Windblast Titan Playstyle and Skill Rotation

Mobbing Rotation

Wind Blast on its own is enough to defeat most mobs since it has AoE damage from Armour Explosion and Herald of Ash. Go through maps as you spam Wind Blast then occasionally use Vaulting Impact for stronger enemies.

  1. Keep spamming Wind Blast to detonate enemies when they die.
  2. Use Vaulting Impact for a bigger, stronger attack.

Single Target Rotation

A mechanic this build uses is equipping the Rage III support gem on Wind Blast. This is because you gain 15% Attack Speed while stacking up your Rage. Once it is full, you no longer get additional Attack Speed, but it would be the optimal time to use Hammer of the Gods.

  1. Repeatedly use Wind Blast to heavy stun, break enemy Armour and stack Rage.
  2. Cast Hammer of the Gods to maximize single-target damage.
  3. Continue using Wind Blast to heavy stun, break enemy Armour and stack Rage again.
  4. Use Vaulting Impact as a secondary source of damage.
